My research in the Hamilton lab began when I was awarded the USRI grant in 2019 to investigate the effects of ocean acidification on behaviour in zebrafish. Most recently, I have been investigating the impact of varying stimuli on shoaling behaviours to determine the role of the visual and lateral line systems in zebrafish. I attended MacEwan University for 3 years from 2016 to 2019. I then transferred to the University of Alberta in Fall 2019 to finish the remainder of my Bachelor of Science, Psychology Honours degree. However, I am still involved in research at both MacEwan and U of A. I plan to pursue a master's degree in Psychology and continue research in the field.
